Indonesia | Sep 2 - Sep 8, 2026

Our guides were all awesome! So knowledgeable and patient. They really made the trip worthwhile. It felt great to have a personal guide and driver to help with translations and overall experiences. Our guide in Lombok was amazing!

I feel that our guide in Ubud could have been a bit more proactive, we mentioned twice wanting to try the Kopi luwak (as we passed multiple places selling it) but he did not offer for us to stop. At the moment we didn't realize that we could have just asked him to take us there, as it was the first day of our trip so we weren't aware that we had that liberty.
He also did not offer for us to stop at any shops to buy souvenirs, so we ventured out on our own when we got back to the hotel. In hindsight I didn't realize we had the option to ask for further beyond just the biking excursion, so maybe that could have been communicated a bit better, but it did not take away from the trip or experience by any means!
